C11 Chapter 11

Although Liu Ge lost an opponent, he was still unable to deal with the three swords that were filled with hatred and anger. The four people of both sides were in a difficult situation.

Although there were many masked men wearing iron masks, they were like lambs in front of Yue Wu.

In order to take care of each other, Liu Xiang and Morley weren't too far away. From time to time, they would exchange blows with each other to eliminate the enemy faster.

Although he was the previous Patriarch of Canghai Sword Sect, no matter how skilled he was, he could not withstand the pressure and was gradually losing his strength in the battle with leader Black-robed Man, which made it difficult for him to continue holding on. Leader Black-robed Man's Longsword hacked straight towards Black-robed Man's inner circle, but Black-robed Man's raising of his sword was unable to stop the force of the hacking of Black-robed Man's sword. When Leader Black-robed Man's sword was about to reach Liu Qianli's head, one sword and one sword appeared in front of Black-robed Man's eyes, and it was only with the addition of his own three swords that managed to block leader Black-robed Man's sword.

"Grandfather."

"Master."

The two people who appeared to the left and right of Black-robed Man and helped him receive his sword were Liu Xiang and Morley. At this moment, the two of them had blood on them, but it was not their own blood.

When Liu Qianqian saw Liu Xiang and Morley come to his side, a trace of happiness flashed across his eyes.

"Haha, do you think that the three of you can stop me?" Black-robed Man pointed at the Longsword in his hand and sneered.

"Humph!" With a cold shout, Liu Qianli thrust his sword outwards.

Morley and Liu Xiang wanted to look at each other. They raised their swords and followed Black-robed Man for about a thousand miles. The three of them surrounded Black-robed Man together. However, their strength was too far apart from their leader's and it was difficult for them to harm him.

When Liu Qianli's sword was about to hit him, Leader Black-robed Man dodged it and arrived in front of Morley. In a moment of shock, Leader Black-robed Man's sword had already deeply stabbed into his lower abdomen.

"Brother Morley!" Liu Xiang looked on helplessly as Morley was hit by the sword, but she could not save him in time. Tears welled up in her eyes.

Morley, whose abdomen was injured, was unable to withstand the next strike from Black-robed Man's leader. Liu Xiang took the opportunity to help Morley up and retreated backwards, seeing Morley's full strength flowing thousands of miles to block Morley behind her.

"Brother Morley!" Liu Xiang looked at Morley's injury with concern and tears were already flowing down her face.

"I'm fine." Morley wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth with one hand, while covering the wound with the other, and said to Liu Xiang, "This small injury is not too bad, go and help grandteacher."

"Yes!" Liu Xiang was worried about Morley, but she didn't have the time to say anything. This was because Black-robed Man's sword had forced Black-robed Man to retreat step by step, and he was already seven steps away from Liu Xiang.

Liu Xiang slightly jumped up and used the force of her fall to slash towards Black-robed Man's shoulder. Black-robed Man merely used his backhand to block Liu Xiang's attack and even sent Liu Xiang's sword flying. After that, the sword's momentum did not stop as it slashed in an arc towards Liu Xiang.

Morley and Liu Qianli didn't have time to save her, so Liu Xiang closed her eyes and waited for the enemy to stab his sword into her body.

Leader Black-robed Man's sword was only within an inch of Liu Xiang, but this gap was an eternal distance. A flying broken blade not only saved Liu Xiang, but also sent the sword in Leader Black-robed Man's hand flying.

Liu Qianli and Wu Tie were both shocked by the broken sword that had appeared. They thought about how the three of them had been forced to retreat by Black-robed Man, but this was just a broken sword, and it only took a moment for Black-robed Man's sword to break. Who did this? How high were his (her) martial arts skills?

Liu Xiang's imagination delayed her future. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Black-robed Man standing not far away from her. The sword in his hand was gone. Liu Xiang looked at Liu Qianli and Morley with a confused expression.

Chief Black-robed Man stared blankly at the broken sabre that fell to the ground after knocking him away. He thought to himself, "How long ago was it when the sword was sent flying?" And today, he had even lost the sword in his hand without even knowing who his opponent was.

Only when the sound of the iron sword hitting the ground rang out did Leader Black-robed Man wake up from his shock. He turned his head to look in the direction the broken blade came from, only to see a white clothed girl quietly standing in the middle of the intense battle with a pink girl on her hand.

Weren't these two surrounded by Mask Red Iron? How? Chief Black-robed Man looked around Yue Wu with a puzzled expression.

Other than the three men supporting each other behind Yue Wu, the rest of the masked men were already lying on the ground. The ones that didn't die had no fighting strength left, while Yue Wu's body wasn't stained with any blood at all.

Black-robed Man watched steadily as Yun Dan ran to Liu Xiang's side. He did not try to stop her, and finally looked at his sword that fell to the side. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Retreat."

Black-robed Man and the others heard their leader's order. Other than the three who were still fighting with Flowing Song, the rest of them abandoned their opponents and left the bloody courtyard. It wasn't until their leader left that the three who were fighting with Flowing Song chose to flee.

"Chase!" Liu Ge chased his opponent and simultaneously shouted, "Come as you wish, leave as you wish. How could it be so easy?"

Other than Liu Xiang, who stayed behind to take care of Morley, the rest of the people in the courtyard also followed Liu Ge. Of course, Yue Wu and Yun Dan didn't leave the courtyard.

At this moment, only Xun Feng and the five masked men were still fighting. The three masked men that Yue Wu let go of had long been killed by the Canghai Sword Sect disciples.

Yue Wu helped herself to a chair and sat down.

Yun Dan waited for Yue Wu to sit down, and seeing that she had no intention of helping Xun Feng, she asked, "Sister Yue Wu, aren't you going to help your brother?"

"Help him?" He can deal with it himself, so we'll just wait and see. " Yue Wu looked at Xun Feng, who was in the middle of fighting, and said without turning her head, "Look at how relaxed he is now. If he were to make a move, then at least the three bronze masked men would have already lied down and let him play."

While Yue Wu and Yun Dan were talking, Liu Qianli also came to their side and sat down on a chair. He looked at Xun Feng who seemed to be leisurely strolling around fighting the five of them and sighed: "In the martial arts world, there are less than five people who can beat him right? I never thought that he would possess such strength at such a young age. Back then, even when I was as young as him, I was only slightly stronger than the current Morley. "

"Besides my master, he is the strongest person I have seen in the past few years." Yue Wu's light voice also showed her praise for Xun Feng.

"Miss Yue Wu, you're also very strong!" I'm here to thank you for saving Liu Xiang! " Liu Qianli's words were still filled with emotion.

"Senior Liu, no need to be so polite. It was just a simple gesture."

"Ai, lady can back off a hundred enemies with a raise of her hand, but this old man can't do anything to the other party even if he tries his best. I'm so ashamed!" Liu Qianli shook his head and sighed. He then looked at Yun Dan and said, "There are many talented people in the martial arts world these days. Even Yun Dan is no weaker than Morley, right?"

"Of course, as your brother's sister, how can I lose face for you?" Yun Dan said without the slightest modesty.

After that, Liu Qianli, Yue Wu, and Yun Dan chatted as they watched Xun Feng fight.

Wu Han finally understood why the organization sent him, Guan, and the two Silver rank killers to complete the mission. Silver level killers usually acted alone. When Wu Han received the mission, he felt that the organization was making a big deal out of nothing. Even if they wanted to assassinate a king, they didn't need two Silver level masters to do it at the same time.

From their exchange until now, Wu Han finally understood one thing: the person in front of him was definitely not someone that he or Guan He could deal with. Two of the three men in the bronze mask had died under Xun Feng's hands, and the only one still alive was Chen Mu. Chen Mu was barely able to stand, but his target was still standing there as if nothing had happened.

Guan He looked at Yue Wu from afar, jumped to Wu Han's side and said in a low voice, "Think of a way to retreat. That girl is not weak either. It's impossible for us to complete the mission today."

"It's a good thing that she doesn't plan to attack us. Otherwise, it would be hard for us to even escape!" Wu Han nodded in agreement.

Xun Feng, however, did not care about what they were planning. He picked up a sword beside him and waved it twice. Then, holding the sword, he walked towards Wu Han and Guan He.

Looking at Xun Feng who was smiling, Wu Han and Guan He took out dozens of concealed weapons and threw them at Xun Feng in one breath. They didn't want to be able to kill the opponent, they only wanted to temporarily block Xun Feng's attacks so that they could escape.

Facing the incoming concealed weapons, Xun Feng had no choice but to stop in his tracks. Using his sword as a shield, he used it to flick open Wu Han's and Guan He's concealed weapons.

While Xun Feng was being blocked, Wu Han and Guan Hefei stood on the wall. Just when they thought they could leave safely, a sword that appeared out of thin air stabbed deeply into Guan He's back. The sword tip that had blood on it was spat out from his chest.

Wu Han's eyes were wide open as he watched Guan He fall from the wall and did not dare to turn back to save him. His former comrade died right in front of his eyes; other than running with all his might, there was nothing he could do and he did not dare to do anything; Wu Han only had one thought in his mind: run! Even if they had to face punishment from the organization after escaping, it would be better than dying here.

After killing Guan He, Xun Feng didn't chase after Wu Han, but went back to Yue Wu. Looking at Yue Wu who was sitting upright, he couldn't help but complain, "Have you had enough rest? I would rather sit here and watch, than talk about helping me out. "

Yue Wu ignored Xun Feng, stood up and said, "Senior, your sect has met with calamity today. I believe that there are a lot of things that have yet to be settled by senior. We will take our leave first."

When Yue Wu stood up, Liu Qianqian also stood up. Looking at the messy courtyard, he sighed, "Since Liu Ge has chased us out, I can't just sit here idly. You guys can do whatever you want with me."

Yue Wu and Xun Feng brought Yun Dan back to their small courtyard. The three of them didn't return to the house but to the pavilion.

Yue Wu looked at the still excited Yun Dan and asked Xun Feng behind her, "Did you know this would happen today?"

"I do know a bit." Xun Feng laughed, and said very casually: "It's just that I didn't think that people from Night Shadow would come and join in on the fun."

"These people seem to be here for you?"

"Ah!" Yun Dan was shocked when she heard Yue Wu say that the masked men were here for Xun Feng. She anxiously asked, "Brother, is what Sister Yue Wu said true?

"It's the famous assassin organization — Night Shadow. In order to kill me alone, they actually sent out two silver ranked assassins, hehe …" Xun Feng shook his head and smiled.

"Night Shadow? Silver rank? " Yun Dan shook her head. She didn't know what this meant.

Xun Feng knew that Yun Dan could not understand, so he explained in detail: "The Night Shadow can be said to be the world's largest assassination organization, and there are branches of it in all four nations. As long as you can afford it, even the king of a country would dare to assassinate them, which means that the top sects on the surface are not able to fight against them. It was said that there were only nine silver rank assassins in the Night Shadow organization, and two above silver and gold rank assassins, and their leader was purple gold rank. Needless to say, strength, naturally the higher one goes, the stronger one is. "

After listening to Xun Feng's explanation, Yun Dan swept away her previous surprise and said nonchalantly, "Are they really that great? Wasn't it just taken care of by brother in a matter of seconds?"

"Ha ha!" Xun Feng patted on Yun Dan's head and smiled, "Girl, you can't underestimate them. These silver level killers are not something you can handle, not to mention they are killers. As long as they can reach their goal, they can use all kinds of methods.

Yue Wu nodded in agreement. She was also a bit confused as she asked Xun Feng: "They should be better at assassination, but why did they fight with you head on this time?"

"They probably underestimated me, right?" Xun Feng guessed, "If there's anything else, it should be that they think they can do whatever they want with just their two silver level Assassins, right?"

"Two assassins can do as they please, aren't they too arrogant!" Yun Dan gritted her teeth and said bitterly.

Yue Wu lightly patted Yun Dan's head and said, "They are indeed much stronger than the average martial artist. The two of them this time are on par with Liu Ge."

"Yeah, the dead one is a little stronger than Flowing Song." Xun Feng reached out his finger and swiped it.

"Why did you let one of them go?"

"That's right, why would big brother let that go?" Yun Dan also could not understand Xun Feng's intentions.

Xun Feng smiled mysteriously and said, "This person might be useful in the future. Now is not the time to kill him."

"Do you know who he is?" Yue Wu looked at Xun Feng strangely. She could hear the other meaning from Xun Feng's words, which surprised Yue Wu.

"You don't need to know." Xun Feng stretched out his hand to look at his palm and said, "As long as I can use it."

Within Liu Ge's study, Liu Qianli sat in front of a desk and asked with a pained heart: "How many disciples were injured?"

Liu Ge was just back from the outside and was called over by Liu Qianqian. At this moment, his clothes were still stained with bloodstains, and upon hearing Liu Qianli's question, his body trembled as he lowered his head and replied: "Roughly five hundred disciples died. Nearly three hundred disciples were injured to different degrees.

When Liu Qianli heard this, he couldn't help but slam the table and say sternly: "Didn't you tell me that everything was settled already? How could there be such a huge loss?"

"I underestimated the enemy." "Flowing Song still has his head down." It's my fault, to let my father do as he pleases. "

"Ai!" Liu Qianli waved his hand and said: "It's good that you know you're wrong. Now that you're the Sect Leader, if I were to punish you again, it would inevitably affect your prestige. You're not young anymore, so don't make such a low level mistake in the future. "

"Yes, Father."

Liu Qianli nodded, then asked: "What do you think of Xun Feng and Yue Wu? I've heard about Xun Feng from you before, so what about Yue Wu? "

"This is the first time I've seen Lady Yue Wu. It is true that she is stronger than me, but how can such a beautiful young woman be so infamous in the martial world?" It seems to have appeared out of thin air. " Liu Ge replied.

"Speaking of 'appearing out of thin air', Xun Feng is even more confused. I heard you say that a few years ago when you met him, you were called 'Ziyang', right?" Liu Qianli didn't wait for Liu Ge's reply and continued: "Why did you change your name now? Furthermore, all of you have only seen him a few years ago. Just where did he come from and where did he go after that, with his abilities, he shouldn't be a nameless brat, but all these years I haven't heard a single rumor about him.

"Father checked on him?" Liu Ge was shocked.

"There's no need to be surprised. If I want a person to be of use to me, I have to at least understand his background." Liu Qianli said without hiding anything.

"'For my use'? "Looks like Father is going to be disappointed. He won't be able to stand with us." Liu Ge shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I talked to him before the banquet, and he has already rejected me very clearly."

"I'm not disappointed, he's too mysterious. I can't find any flaws on him, and after watching him fight with the Night Shadow assassin today, I understand that he's too scheming, and I don't dare to use this kind of person."

After he finished speaking, he walked to the window and looked up at the sky, saying rather sorrowfully: "No matter how they used to be, I think that from today onwards, the name 'Feng Yue' will become famous in the martial arts world. Who would've thought that they would become famous in my Azure Sea Region."

"Yeah! Just based on their appearances, they are enough to attract the attention of the entire world, not to mention that they both have good abilities. Moreover, I'm guessing that behind them is a very powerful force." Liu Ge smiled slightly and said, "Father, I want Liu Xiang and Morley to train with them, Xun Feng has also agreed."

"That's good too, Liu Xiang and Morley should go train themselves. This opportunity is even harder to come by, so let's do as you've arranged!" Liu Qianli nodded.

"Father, the people from the six sects have all left before the banquet. It seems like they all want to watch the battle. How do we deal with them in the future?"

"So what if it was in the past. Even the hundreds of Black-robed Man's Canghai Sword Sect that were difficult to destroy wouldn't even be placed in their eyes, right?" Liu Qianli's face revealed a smile, but his laughter didn't contain a trace of bitterness or helplessness. Instead, it carried a different meaning.

"Could it be that Father's display of strength today was weaker than the enemy because …"

"Hmph, you will understand in the future, now is not the time." Liu Qianli waved his hand and said, "You can go and rest."

"Yes." Liu Ge excused himself, then walked out of the study. Liu Ge glanced at his bloodstained clothes and smiled.

In Morley's room, Liu Xiang was carefully bandaging Morley's wounds, but Yue Wu's image was nowhere in her mind. "Big brother Morley, Miss Yue Wu is so strong. Even Grandpa and the three of us couldn't beat Black-robed Man, but Miss Yue Wu scared him off!"

"That's right!" Morley's gaze wandered to the sword he placed on the table, then he sighed with emotion and said, "Miss Yue Wu is not much older than me, but she's much stronger than me. At the foot of the mountain, when Yun Dan was captured, she knew that she was very strong.

"Why is Yun Dan captured?" Liu Xiang asked curiously. She had gotten along with Yun Dan for the past few days, and when she heard that she had been kidnapped, she couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

"It has something to do with Yun Dan's background. If you want to know, you can ask her yourself." Morley was also unwilling to talk about the other party behind her back, so he decisively gave up on the idea of asking Liu Xiang any further.

"Oh!" Liu Xiang replied in dissatisfaction, but then she thought of a faint figure and asked again, "Then between Young Master Xun Feng and Miss Yue Wu, who is stronger?"

"I don't know either."

In Morley's eyes, they had always been ordinary people who didn't use any martial arts. Indeed, between Xun Feng and Yue Wu, they had never shown their strength to each other, and the first time they met, Yue Wu had lightly lashed out at the robbers, and Yun Dan was captured, and Morley didn't even see Yue Wu and Xun Feng fight, so he didn't know how strong they were. The third time was Liulan Mountain Staircase, so Morley didn't know about it. Therefore, it was impossible for Morley to know who was stronger between Xun Feng and Yue Wu.

After the first battle of the Canghai Sword Sect, it was a huge uproar in the martial woods of the martial world. No one would have thought that the Canghai Sword Sect, one of the strongest among the seven sects in the martial arts world, would cause the base to be attacked by unknown forces, and the losses were not small either.

What was puzzling was that the other six factions that were the leaders of the six factions seemed to be very calm and harmonious. What was even more bewildering was that it was said that all six factions had sent people to the Liulan Mountain to offer their birthday wishes, while the people from the six sects had left the Liulan Mountain long before the start of the banquet, leaving Canghai Sword Sect to face the enemy alone.

Currently, Canghai Sword Sect was only used to recruit disciples who were travelling abroad. They did not mention who was the person who attacked the mountain gate and many people were guessing whether it was a force that had been hibernating for a long time that had begun to expand, and Canghai was merely the first target. This conjecture made it even more certain that the martial arts world was about to fall into chaos.

Almost everyone in the martial arts world knew that there was a pair of figurehead who had appeared in the martial arts forest. There were all sorts of rumours, but all of them agreed that not only were they incomparably handsome, their martial arts skills were also superb. Yue Wu was a factor in the fact that Canghai Sword Sect was able to repel Black-robed Man. If not for Black-robed Man's leader being forced back by Yue Wu's sword, even if Canghai Sword Sect managed to win in the end, he would have had to pay a greater price.
